Numbers posted:Doesn't seem to work. I tried the forward and R2 thing, one and two handing my spear and trying it, switching between multiple weapons, attacking different angles. Nothing even budges it. This sucks ;( Hmmm, that worked for me but I guess I'll just say that you don't need to get past the dragon corpse to finish the level. In fact, there is nothing past the corpse other than a fall onto a path that you can access another way. I think you want to go to the main courtyard with the phalanx type enemies. There's a well or something there you can climb down. See if that helps.

Sputnik posted:How do you kill Black Knights effectively? go ahead and use the resin on tough fights, it adds a good chunk of lightning damage to your attacks. Titanite Shards upgrade your things, so use them on whatever equipment you like to use. You'll have plenty later. ya, you can sell things later on. Though weapons & armor sell for 50 & 100 souls, which is already chump change by the time you unlock the grinder Almost Smart posted:Yay, I rang the second bell! go back out to the swamp.

I'm SL 18 and have 14.5k souls. I can get just under 4k souls in just under 20 minutes by starting at firelight shrine, going through the burbs and undead parish killing everything I come across. Should I just spend my souls on levelling, or is it worth buying that item off the blacksmith that opens the door in the forest?

So uh, decided to try out Moonlight Butterfly since I read a couple posts here saying it was really easy. Got my rear end kicked 5 times. SL16 using a pure melee heavy armor build, there's just no way to dodge the magic needle attack and even blocking it with the best magic defense shield I have, (65%, Caduceus Round Shield), it does considerable damage so I run out of Estus Flask +1 charges by the time it's at half health. Am I too underleveled for it or do I just need a better shield?

^ Little of column A, little of column B. Both would help you here. If you have access to the depths you can buy a crystal shield that will help, or you can just dodge better in general. Having better more offensive power means less air phases as well.im a girl btw posted:I'm SL 18 and have 14.5k souls.

If you are willing to use a little bit of geometry abuse to net like 8k souls in under a minute, then you can save up for the key. I'd only do that if you're going to go straight for the key though, otherwise just go ahead and level and play on.

Im sitting at SL 37 and seemingly need to go into Blighttown. My first trek in there was a bit of a mess as I was hit with Toxin almost immediately. I cant really afford to buy many of the Flowering Mosses, and farming them is just an exercise in frustration. Where should I be going to rack up a decent number of souls to get ready for this? Also, is there any item that lets you lock onto 'invisible' NPCs? Thats honestly the worst thing I've seen in this game in terms of complete and total bullshit.

Bobnumerotres posted:gently caress Anor Londo. gently caress. I just made it through this area, and can offer a bit of assistance. Shoot the white wyvern thing on the right from the bridge as you approach the front stairs. It'll jump off the edge and die. Similarly, lure the two wyvern things waiting in ambush before the black knight archers by shooting an arrow at the ground in front of them to draw them out of hiding, and shoot them both to get them to attack you before going across the narrow rampart down. One will get stuck on the ramp railing, and the other will either bunch up on him or run off the edge. If he doesn't run off the edge, he'll likely fall off immediately after he attacks you as you approach. The archers are legitimately dicks, but I found that if you're far enough up the ramp/to one side that only one has line of sight on you, his arrows will all catch the edge of the concrete platform in front of you. From here I killed them each with repeated headshots using feather arrows, a good bow and the low-health hyper-damage ring.

To be honest though, SL 37 is pretty good for Blighttown. I did most of Blighttown at like SL 34. Did you get the shield in the Depths that blocks toxin (at least when you are guarding)? That might help you a bit. Keep in mind the toxin throwers stay permanently dead once you kill them.

Is geometry abuse referring to how you're supposed to kill the dudes on the other side of the door? I would like to know the trick because so far those dudes have been straight up raping me in the rear end.

Agnostic watermelon posted:Is there any decent early soul farming spots like the reaper in 4-2? Two early bosses taht give you that many souls are the Depths boss and the Asylum secret boss. Alternatively you can just grind the 20k yourself using your own methods (e.g., killing the gargoyle and then grinding the 10k off the Parish stuff). The forest soul trick is shown here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cp6IKCG1U8U

Guliani is HOT posted:You need to dodge all the attacks pretty much. Get nude and keep trying. The best way I found to do it was to stay as far away from the boss as possible. Then if I dodged as soon as he released an attack I would be covered for all of them. If it's the spikes, then you'll just dodge them outright. If it's the giant beam or the slow projectiles, you'll recover from your first dodge with enough time to dodge again when they get close to you.

Rascyc posted:Depths soul farming is pretty good if you are an expert at dodging curses. Otherwise you can do the soul geometry abuse in the heart of the forest at Darkroot Garden if you unlocked the door. I'm not too sure if there's really any super spots. No, I must have missed that in the Depths. Care to elaborate a bit on the Darkroot Garden thing?

Been playing this game non stop for the last two days since it came out in England. I've managed to kill Early boss spoilers The gaping Dragon and that magic dude in front of the garden who didn't get a name. I opened the secret area with the money from the dragon and did a bit of grinding. Now I've progressed a bit into the garden itself and found item spoilers The Elite Knight Set and the Partizan. Now I can't decide whether to use that or the winged spear I've been using for the rest of the game and have upgraded to +4. Since I only have one spear that is already upgraded I can't check the base stats to see which is better. So, should I abandon the winged spear and farm to upgrade the partizan or stick with the winged spear? The sweep attacks probably would be nice in certain situations. Also in the Lower UndeadBurg there is a dude locked behind a door, talking to the guy at firelink I'm guessing he is the magic teacher. Where is the key to get him out? Also in The Depths Are the crystal weapons and armour worth the asking price. They are pretty expensive but, fairly obtainable with the suicide cliff farming method. I have been using the crest shield from the return to the asylum, the winged spear, the pyro hand and the shortbow (which is getting a bit long in the tooth, I'm wary of upgrading it because it seems like I should be finding a compound or longbow around the next corner. Wow, that's a lot of spoilers and a lot of questions! So far the game is pretty incredible.

Nah, you need the 20,000 soul key from the blacksmith. Regarding crystal equipment from the depths, keep in mind they are not repairable.

Rascyc posted:I'm not 100% sure about this but I believe you have to goto the belltower and pay the priest there to absolve your sin. It should cost you 2k soul * level, so get ready for some rape if you're a bit high level. I can confirm that this works. It cost me 40,000 souls but it was worth it to not get violated anally every time I wanted to go to Firelink.

Anor Londo is seriously unfun. The area is beautiful but it takes forever to get anywhere. The area with the archer on that thin ledge is loving horseshit, back up too far and get a truck sized arrow through your back. Plus it's lovely to be forced to play it. What happened to open world? I want to go back to Firelink Shrine, drat it.

This might be a bit of a vague question, but is it possible to backtrack to Firelink from the Depths? I haven't tried, but I want to figure out if it's possible before i attempt it.

Jesus gently caress I almost broke my controller in half. Stuck on Ornstein and Smough in Anor Londo. Anyone got any tips? I've been using the +5 lightning spear which sucks against Ornstein but wrecks Smough (300 damage). Any easy way to take out Ornstein other than farming some humanity and then summoning solaire for the fight? Can I get Both of them down to low hp and then kill one so when the other gets powered up he only has a little hp left? Speaking of summoning him, where is his summon symbol? I must be blind.

Unfortunately, once you kill one the other one gets all their health back. Try fire for Ornstein. I've seen a video of that particular boss fight, and it seemed like he took decent damage from fire.

I probably just suck at dodging (used to blocking everything), as I tried another few times with some leather armor for faster rolls and those spikes always get me. Sometimes seems like it shoots them right where I'm recovering from a dodge
